About

Way ward lies in the heart of Mid Devon, characterised by its gently rolling hills and pastoral farmland. The area is primarily rural, with small villages and hamlets scattered across a landscape shaped by the River Yeo and its tributaries. The local economy has long been connected to agriculture and forestry. This is a quiet part of the county, where narrow lanes connect isolated farms and patches of ancient woodland.

A notable local tradition involves the annual production of Crediton Red, a distinctive variety of cider apple cultivated in the surrounding orchards. The area maintains a strong sense of community, with many residents having longstanding family ties to the farms and smallholdings that define the surrounding countryside.
